    Hi I'm sorry couldn't find a forum for phones so I decided I'd seek advice here.

    iPhone 5s. Battery was greatly diminishing more than usual over the last 5 days. Ive done all the steps to prevent; brightness level down, only one app open any one time, not playing music, not in constant use.

    Went to a repair guy in a shopping centre today. He put in a brand new battery, gave me a receipt with 3 month warranty. AND the last 3 hrs now problem persists. Battery going down rapidly.

    I rarely use wifi, only my data. Anyone any ideas? Could it be because of my low storage?

    Sorry can't help but you might be better asking a mod to move the thread to the apple forum https://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/forumdisplay.php?f=1176

    Go to Settings>Battery and it’ll show you a list of what Apps are consuming your battery.

    A hard reboot by holding down the power and home buttons until the Apple boot logo appears may also help.
